Running an event in Felcourt
Felcourt is about 2 miles north of East Grinstead, in West Sussex. Give us the address of your event in Felcourt, and we will plan access and set-up before the day. Felcourt is one of 371 towns and villages in West Sussex where we cook. Our nearest city page is Brighton, about 23 miles away.
Events in parks such as Centenary Fields need permission from the council or landowner, and we will send any documents they ask for. School fairs, for a school like Bush Davies School of Theatre Arts, are a natural fit for a paella stall. Within about 5 miles is the High Weald National Landscape, where events may have extra rules on vehicles and waste; we’ll follow the site’s requirements.
We cater events across RH19 and RH7. That could mean an event in a garden on Felcourt Lane, Felcourt Road and Blackberry Road.

How the day works
We take care of the food from set-up to service, so you can enjoy your event. Any tapas or canapés are served first as the rice is cooking. Evening events in Felcourt have light until about 9:20pm at midsummer; after that, the pitch needs good lighting.
- Tell us about the event and pitch.
- We confirm menu, pitch needs and documents.
- We set up on time.
- We cook and serve throughout.
- We pack down and tidy the pitch.
Preparing for the day
- Have a gazebo or cover ready if rain is likely

- Pick a flat, firm spot for us to cook

Why live cooking beats a buffet
Hot-cabinet food lacks theatre. A giant pan cooking in view sells itself. Tapas, desserts, sangria, staff and crockery are optional extras, so you only pay for what you want.
Why choose Love Paella in Felcourt
- Waiting staff and crockery on request
- Hot food served quickly from the pan

DIY paella versus live catering
Doing it yourself saves money, but the host ends up stuck at the stove. With live paella catering, you get the theatre without the work.
You can cook paella for a crowd yourself, but it takes practice. Large pans need the right burners, and getting the rice right at scale is tricky. Our guide to cooking paella for a crowd explains how.
Where we can cook in Felcourt
The right spot keeps things safe and helps the paella cook evenly. We need:
- Details of power, water and waste arrangements
- Flat, firm ground
- Access for unloading at set-up

What affects the price in Felcourt
Every event is priced individually, and the price depends on a few things:
- Extra courses such as canapés, tapas and dessert
- Plates, cutlery and glassware
- How many guests are eating
- Distance and access to the venue
Seafood and premium ingredients cost more than chicken or vegetable paellas, so your choice of paellas affects the total. We’ll suggest options to suit your budget.
